“When you're socially awkward, you're isolated more than usual, and when you're isolated more than usual, your creativity is less compromised by what has already been said and done. All your hope in life starts to depend on your craft, so you try to perfect it. One reason I stay isolated more than the average person is to keep my creativity as fierce as possible. Being the odd one out may have its temporary disadvantages, but more importantly, it has its permanent advantages.” WritingTryingMayPersonsSaidReasonDonePerfectCreativityDependsAdvantageAverageCraftsPermanentOddTemporaryUsualIsolatedFierceAwkwardIntrovertDisadvantagesAverage PersonSaid And DoneIntroversionSocially AwkwardAdvantages And DisadvantagesHopes In LifeOdd One Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy

“All the nations and peoples are too closely knit together today for any one of them to imagine that it can live apart.

“As early as second grade I remember feeling really different and isolated. I had the hugest crush on a boy, and my best friend had a crush on him, too. One day he said to me, 'I like your best friend more because she's paler and she has freckles.' And it was right then that I began to feel like, Oh wow, I'm different.” FeelsSaidDifferentFeelingsRememberBoysLike YouOne DayCrushGradesWowIsolatedMy Best FriendYour Best FriendI Like YouFrecklesCrushing On Him Author:America Ferrera
